A potter’s workshop outside Yangon, Myanmar.
I visited this village with a small community of potters near Yangon. Their setups are fairly large for a potter – almost twice the size of an olympic size swimming pool. The process is typical – beat the clay, bring it to shape on a wheel, beat, burn and then paint. Here is a photograph of the burning process in a rather pleasing mix of outdoor light (on an overcast day) and the warm light of the fire.
